And another, from Reddit (u/WobbliestJet)...
This one translates to OLD...
So we now have OLD, BASTION, HOWLING, PASSAGE
The Mystery Begins!
And we now have another, courtesy of Sadden and Toast Flynn on Discord:
This one is "NW"....
Meaning we have: NW, OLD, BASTION, HOWLING, PASSAGE, OF
EDIT:
Missed a couple while I was sleeping (sadly, I'm working this weekend so likely I'll miss a few) but, according to the crew on Discord, we now have:
NW, OLD, BASTION, HOWLING, PASSAGE, OF, HOME, and OLD again
Just adding sources for Home and Old (the second one):
HOME (via JRN on Discord)
OLD (via u/CallMeLink on Reddit)

Not gonna lie, I agree that has been the most frustrating part of this. I'm also not fond of progressing it with no confirmation at times of exactly what we did right.
I'm hoping we get some sort of breakdown at the end, so we can make sense of it all.
They could have easily split this into phases or chapters, where you'd get a satisfying conclusion to a question and the mystery arc would continue.
- Who was murdered?
- What is the murder weapon?
- Who does the murder weapon belong to?
- Who is the murderer?
- What was the motive?
- Conclusion
We've finished Step 0, since that was basically given to us when this started, but do we have any answers to any of the other parts after a couple months of doing this? Nope. I understand that they are setting a pace for how fast the mystery is able to be unraveled so that everyone can sort of follow along, but the problem is there hasn't been any actual development or relevant information revealed.
Personally, I wish most of the clues or mystery info would be in-game or on the main website on a new tabs being updated when someone find something and where we could get a small live chat section with other players.
Being all over the place right now is very difficult to follow up.
Something like : X player found a note on Y island. # of pirates found the same.
@realstyli I imagine the order of these words aren’t random so could all the words found before a word with quotations possibly be grouped together in a sentence? Or maybe we’ll be able to group all quotations words together? I’m trying to start structuring some of the sentences and wondering if discord has touched on the phrases yet. We’d have to possibly be getting quite a few words to make the quotations together a sentence.

The order of the words in that list is when they were posted to social media and added to the list, so I wouldn't use that as an indicator at all.
The box quote at the end could be a sentence ending symbol though, and not quoted words as everyone previously thought.

Actually, the list I am posting is a bit out of order... I just put them randomly at first, and at some point started adding at the end because it was easier. It makes no odds as we don't know the correct order yet anyway.
The Fandom WIKI might be a better place to look if folks want the list in order of when they were found and posted...
Who Killed DeMarco? | The Sea of Thieves Wiki
"Who Killed DeMarco?" is the first Mystery in Sea of Thieves. It began on May 17th, 2022 and ended on September 15th, 2022, leaving its conclusion open for players to experience and earn rewards...
Also, the Discord is a good place to stay really up to date, someone usually posts as soon as one is found, and the important information is pinned (can get a little riled up though with some folk going a bit wild on theories).

It's best to bring popcorn if one is to visit the Discord channel, lol :)
There are a couple of "characters", but most folk there are helpful and knowledgeable.

A howling wolf plots due course at midnight. NW of home past an old fort. Aiming for the shroud a man desperate to leave his past behind, but in the end doesn't our past catch upto us? To sink another's ship is the past time of a reaper correct?
Hello hell0666, what method did you use to write this out of the words?
@jetorchidee97 the story has been told in riddles, is it not clear? The answer from one leads the pirates to here. The story's unfold on shroudbreaking tides and the songs of freedom fill up the skies. Follow the music she said and your heading be true, but now he is dead, what shall we do.

Day 1 &2 he prepares his shipWanda did not catch up to and kill DeMarco. She was trapped in the Sea of the Damned the whole time.
We know this from the last Adventure where Amaranta says she was blamed for his death.
It's only at the end of that Adventure that Amaranta provides the Dark Brethren (including Wanda and Duke) the means to get back from the Sea of the Damned.
